Alana Nguyen

I am a second-year college student attending the University of Oregon, majoring in Neuroscience & Human Physiology on a Pre-Medical track. Given my academic route, this is applicable to my daily life: being quick-witted on my feet while staying organized makes me an ideal asset to a fast-paced and demanding working environment. I am ready to enter and maintain a positive, welcoming, and clean environment for guests to feel inclined to come back and enjoy their time.

Given my prior work experience in hosting and advocacy, I am able to quickly adapt to new environments and making the most out of every and any situation.
